a very old poem...in honor of Peter Falk (wish I had a "Columbo" poem, but I don't..)
After Watching A Woman Under the Influence
Picket house fence
You are not crazy
“Just a little nervous”
Making funny noises with your face
— a Bronx cheer
allowing children to run around naked
in the white shafts of a 1976 afternoon
You are not crazy
(serving spaghetti to the crew)
Leave it
Leave it
Leave it all
and go smoke your damn cigarettes
(a Woman Under the Influence)
